Concentration in local television markets

Pages 3-21 | Published online: 24 Feb 2009
 

Abstract

This article asserts that the degree of economic concentration in markets is affected by the precise definition of the markets and that measurement is problematic because media firms operate in a number of markets and face competition from substitutes. The author builds several alternative market definitions for local television and shows that there are significant differences in the measured concentration levels using the market definitions.
